      One of Balázs's central ideas was the unmediated visibleness of the spiritual in the physical, and this was closely connected with the notion of a corresponding visual resensitizing of the individual through the filmic image, through which "we finally see things with our eyes, that would cause us to close our eyes if appearing in reality," as he wrote elsewhere.
